It may sound like Flintstone, but after using 3 different feature phones for 6 years, and then 4 different (mid to high end) smartphones in the next 6 years (till now), I found no better "phone" than Nokia 1100 ($35). the reasons-

1. You would have to charge it twice in a week, at most. Mostly I ended up charging it once/week. It would actually run longer with low battery warning than today's most smartphones' whole charge cycle.

2. It was convenient to hold, small enough to lose in any kind of pockets. At least I never had to take the phone in to account when buying pants, which I need to do now, for smartphones.

3. The phone would last forever, only you would have to change the battery in every two years.

4. It was rock solid. You could use it as alternative to stone to hit something.

5. After all, there is no more satisfying communication method than voice call. And there is no more satisfying game than snakes.

I wish I could buy a Nokia 1100. Today's Nokia feature phones are sensitive, fragile, bulky and they stop working in couple of years.

I still have and am using my 1100. Since I am still using the original battery the life is down to about a week. If I buy a random battery off the net, chances are it will be crap. You, of course, can't get original batteries anymore.

The 1100 is the most popular cell phone in the known universe:
